Isn't she cute? And easy to beat! That sounds kind of wrong, sorry. There are plenty of pets that can solo this fight, mostly dragonkin or the famous Emperor Crab for example.

You need to update the TD Script to the one posted by Prudentius for the Explode version. The current script does not follow the strat, and uses bombing run first, which is completely wasted because pixiebell dies on the round it would hit.

This script does not work either; it still often uses Bombing Run too early (before Pixiebell dies), resulting in the bomb going off on Doodle instead of Tally, and a dead MPD.

I've never written a script, but it looks like the problem is in the 2nd last line, which uses Bombing Run if the first pet's health is < 222. Since Bombing Run does only 148 damage when cast, this fails to kill Pixiebell and instead goes of on Doodle before Tally swaps in, which often results in Tally killing the MPD.
Seems like this should be changed to:
ability(647) [ enemy.hp <= 149]
Any comments?

In fact, to prevent BR being used on Tally's last round, then going off later on Doodle and possibly killing Doodle before explode, perhaps the script should be:

ability(334) [ self.hp.full ]
if [ enemy(#2).active ]
ability(647) [ enemy.hp.full ]
ability(282) [ enemy.hp < 561 ]
endif
if [ enemy(#1).active ]
ability(647) [ enemy.hp <= 149 ]
endif
ability(115)

Noticed an error. Line 7 should be:
ability(647) [ enemy.hp <= 148 ]

Look again tomorrow. Lots of tamers are AWOL or not offering quests. It's a bug, and a Blue post says Blizzard are investigating.

After having the MPD kill Doodle with a crit before Doodle was below 560, it might be worth the extra two moves of putting your levelling pet in and out before this could happen.

Dunno if it was a bug, but i swapped both level 1's in and all of the xp only went to the first level one upon explode, not both. There was a patch today, maybe they changed something?

It worked for me as intended. I'm not sure why you swapped in your lvl 1 pets when using Explode? Just execute the algorythm and you'll be fine.

As an alternative strategy with Mechanical Pandaren Hatchling, you can run it with 1, 1, 2 as follows:

Turn 1: Decoy
Turns 2-4: Breath until Pixiebell is dead.
Turns 5-6: Rotate in the leveling pets.
Turn 7: Bombing Run.
From here, just use Breath on Tally. The Mechanical Pandaren Hatchling will more often than not die, but when it does, it will auto-rez and the Bombing Run will complete, taking out Tally. From here, just use Breath on Doodle until it dies.

For grammar's sake: Your statement should read "Whether you're" and not "Rather your".

No, but sometimes it's fun to watch the young'ns get in a few licks. :) OTOH, I always feel terrible when Doodle dies. :(

This worked better than the currently built in script.

The script attached to the strat leads off with Bombing Run - which is wasted, because the first enemy dies the same round the bomb would hit.
